Yesterday (May 23rd), bassist Tom Hamilton checked in from Vindaloo to talk with AF1 about the band's new album.

"All right, the record's being mixed," Hamilton revealed. "We're getting ready to put this thing out. Actually the record is not coming out in its entirety until September, but we're going to feed you little chunks of it until now and then. We're at the end phase out in Los Angeles, Steven (Tyler) is putting his voice on everything, Joe (Perry) is working on his final leads. A few more songs came along while we were out there."

Check out the clip below:

Aerosmith is working with their long-time producer Jack Douglas, who worked on such classic Aerosmith albums as 1974's Get Your Wings, 1975's Toys In The Attic and 1976's Rocks, as well as the band's 2004 collection of blues standards, Honkin' On Bobo.
